This paper addresses the methodological framework behind the definition of a joint curriculum for a formative, cultural, and professional exchange among young migrants, local craftspersons, and social workers, within the framework of the Erasmus+ funded project Intercultural Craft — A bridge between traditional knowledge and cultures. Through the promotion of the social inclusion of people from migratory backgrounds in the local social fabric of the hosting territory, the project aims to design and develop a new social business model of shared value for the craft sector. Based on that, the transmission of traditional knowledge, the exchange of cultures, and the development of new skills lead the project activities which involve the development of a joint training curriculum based on the skills and competences of each of the beneficiary actors to engage in collaborative ecological and social design practices. This, together with the pilot action of selected learning modules and units to test properly its effectiveness and impact towards the beneficiaries. The discussion of the project results and the data collected leads to open conclusions supported by new research questions and the submission of a new research project which aims to further scale up and replicate the design actions undertaken so far.
